Wild Ponies

She was a beautiful girl

She was wild as the wind

On top of the world

Till she fell in love with him

Everyone told her that he was bad news

A boy goin nowhere ain't no good for you

Cause wild ponies are born to run

Don't you no wild ponies

Don't belong to no one

So baby, run

Run

Run away

The first time he hit her

Was right after church

He said he was sorry

But it only got worse

Now she's not the same girl

That she used to be

He's breaking her spirit

He's fencing her dreams

Cause wild ponies are born to run

Don't you know wild ponies

Don't belong to no one

So baby, run

Run

Run away

She went out for groceries

Just an ordinary day

She realized she was just a block from the interstate

She sat at the stop light

The wheel in her hands

And when the light changed

She knew this was her chance

Wild ponies are born to run

Don't you know wild ponies

Don't belong to no one

Baby, run

Run

Run away
